Life's been busy. But the funny thing is...I can't point at any one thing, beyond my job, that has lionized my time. It seems there is never enought time to sit here and type ( an exceedingly slow process one finger at a time) but I can't say what exactly has stopped me. And I think that's the point.

It is very easy to focus in on the small details of our lives and miss the bigger point, which is to experience our world. It is very simple to go from chore to chore, just take the next predictable step along the path without thinking of what you're doing or to notice what you've missed. Get up, go to work, come home, sleep, repeat.

It sort like following the direction on a shampoo bottle, if you take them literally you end up with an empty bottle. Which is what's so disconcerting about falling into this trap, you end up with an emptier life.

Not that I'm complaining, I have a wonderful life. It just that falling into this is disappointing. So, therefore, I have to do something about it since I am in charge of my our happiness. But what? I know bash Bush...no, to easy. How about gripe about the economy...to real. I'm not sure right now but I'll think of something, and when I do you'll be the first to know.
